someone IMed me this quote by towers, I was pretty surprised at how stupid it was:

"I heard somebody chirping when I was talking to Lyle [Overbay] ... Tony Pena is running his mouth off and I was like, 'What's this guy running his mouth off for?' This dude is a quitter. He managed a team and quit in the middle of the season because he couldn't hack it." -- Towers

thats pretty lame and I wouldnt want people on my team talking [censored] like that. the blue jays did a pretty good job of owning themselves today. its fair enough for them to think what arod did was lame, I understand them being pissed about it. but all this crap is just making WAY too big a deal about it. throwing behind arod, then hitting him again the next day, towers and stairs running around getting in arods face, then talking [censored] about the first base coach after the game... i mean come on, they are making themselves just look dumb at this point, regardless of however bad what arod did was.

things are going soooo good, at this point it is almost hard to remember a couple months ago when the season was a total disaster
